Dear professor @jpfeifer  
I tried to run identification analysis but I got the error message like this:

 ![error11111](https://forum.dynare.org/uploads/default/original/3X/b/6/b653b0da732d4306a9f7365fcfc79e1a76e79566.png)

I don’t know how to fix this. Please help me.  
Any instruction will be much appreciated.

Hi Oliver:  
It always the timing of varibles, like: capital and bond, you could check your model. For example:

```auto
y = theta+(1/(eps-1))*A+alpha*k(-1)+(1-alpha)*L;
...
...

```

As @Oliver correctly pointed out, your timing seems incorrect. Before you move to estimation, you should try to get a simulated version of the model to run.
